Welcome
Root 2 Music draws from Celtic music and Deep South Country Blues. Root 2 Music features fiddle, guitar, harmony vocals, percussion plus additional miscellaneous instruments. David Frank and Nancy Reid began Root 2 Music over 15 years ago. Nancy’s sister, Mary Beth Young Coffee, of the successful Celtic group “Beggar’s Circus”, sometimes plays in Root 2 Music. The group's many musical friends may also join in. Root 2 Music has won recognition at the Appalachian String Band Festival (Clifftop) and at the International Blues Challenge (Beale Street, Memphis) and is well known along the Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia for fun and music.
In mathematical terms, Root 2 cannot be expressed as the ratio of two integers. Irrational? Yes! Nondeterministic? Perhaps, but always a pleasant surprise.
